Dapi Sauerkraut Cultural Museum Introduction
The exclusive salty and sour aroma of Dapi! Dapi's sauerkraut is known for containing only salt and no other seasonings, making it the top in terms of both planting area and production in Taiwan. The Sauerkraut Cultural Museum introduces the history and cultural characteristics of sauerkraut in Dapi Township, and holds the unique Sauerkraut Festival every winter. The museum plans to collect data on representative local crops, focusing mainly on mustard greens (the main ingredient for pickled sauerkraut), with supplementary crops like orchids and rice, showcasing various farming tools and equipment used in the handling of these crops. It collaborates with village offices and community development committees to整理 local cultural and historical data from the Dapi area, establishing a display area under its management. At the same time, a committee is organized to train volunteers and interpreters, promoting the cultural industry of the sauerkraut museum and its sustainable operation. The Sauerkraut Cultural Museum is a sensory experience space, where the exhibits not only allow visitors to experience the aromas at each step of sauerkraut production, but also have themed displays and audiovisual equipment revolving around Dapi, making it a truly customized local cultural museum designed to market local specialties. The museum holds an annual "Sauerkraut Cultural Festival," allowing both adults and children to come and enjoy the fun of making sauerkraut.
